[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Maybe you should get home 5-10 minutes before nanny's end time. Take 5 minutes to interact with your daughter, give her your full attention since she's most likely excited that you are home and then set up an activity like coloring or a puzzle and be very clear that she cannot interrupt you and the nanny while you are talking, unless it's an emergency. This way your daughter can interact with you immediately, nanny gets to leave on time, your child learns how to wait her turn, and you will actually get to hear everything nanny says. If you're unable to get home early then ask nanny to write everything she wants to tell you in a notebook and you can go over it when you have a moment. Leave questions or comments in there and then nanny can answer them the next day[/quote] I do this. I noticed my mb would let the kids takeover our convos and she wanted to talk for 10 minutes everynight despite knowing I had an half hr commute in dead lock traffic. So I began keeping a journal. Guess what? She still stands there asking about bowel movements and did they make friends at the park for 10 minutes and tellinge to hold on while she looks at her kids art being shoved in her face. I just started picking up my things and waking towards the door. That jiggle from the keys makes her shut the kids up and respect that I'm trying to discuss things with her [/quote] Good for you! That's really excellent.[/quote]
